All of my pets have been rescues from the shelter and already had names 😻

Honestly, there is nothing much more wonderful than a rescued Himalayan.

 

Bless my sweet ones, I miss you so. ♥️

Re: How did you choose your pet's names?

I had the name before I had my baby girl. I wanted a Yorkie to name Khloe. And I got her sooner than I wanted but am so glad she came into my life. I’m her 3rd owner, she was a year 4 months and she is now 4 years old. Here she is on my lap.

@KingstonsMom   Look at that kingly boy with love in his eyes.  Such a touching story....both of you are so lucky to have found each other.

Re: How did you choose your pet's names?

When I was a kid we had a huge unabridged dictionary with pages of names in the back.  Turn to the back, flip the pages and point to a name; hence the name Zephie.

@lollyg   Is Zephie a nickname for Zephyr?  What a creative and descriptive name.

Love your names and stories!

 

Our last two bengals were easy - our kitten had been named Rocko by the breeder's helper, so we got used to calling him that.  He did have many nicknames - Rockman, Rockmeister, Rocko Bengali, Draco (after Draco Malfoy when he was naughty) and Weasel (because he was long and skinny).

 

We later adopted his great grandma when she was retired and she was Millie (aka Millwood Millie of San Souci).

 

The only two other cats of note were a white cat named Popcorn (because, as a kitten he would pop up into the air when he was startled) and a pure black shelter cat I named Magic, but she quickly became Shadow because she followed me everywhere.
